I leave you with this:

You can if you post Olli

Terry isn't a hockey guy other than a fan. I don't want him picking the coach.
- cabin

Talk about a generic wild guess of a statement I mean of course, unless you know this for certain.
Dont kid yourself with this thought.
Terry has owned this team for how many years now?
Terry is a very intelligent man and this past 2 years I'd bet with his huge investment has become more of this 'hockey guy' you speak of than you give him credit for.

we must have an Olli blocker at work

But somehow the really sh1tty memes and Jr High pics that have little or nothing to do with the conversation make it through.

I can get on my cell phone if I really think I'm missing something. But I can look at the little red X and fill in hundreds of Olli pics and gifs from memory.

maybe we'll see a mcnabb call-up soon...

Also, good to see you around these parts again...

and it needs to keep getting bumped... it's brilliant

I am very interested in seeing what the lines are going to be tonight.

porter in?
grigs back in?
Brennan stay in cause Rolston knows his game well?

Please tell me 55 is in the press box!

So I'll bump it one more time. It's not his best ever, but I'll take it.

I was going to boycott the season because of the strike and then this happened.

I hope that the Sabres are bringing Ruff upstairs to help with the management decisions and that they are not just parting ways....he brings a lot of hockey knowledge and he should help get rid of some of the deadweight on the team.

There are some sorry lads on this team that are getting some big dollars...it is one of the biggest payrolls in the NHL. McCormick should have gone to the minors a long time ago, but he will end up on another team in the East.

Although I like Ruff and Reigher, it does not look like they are folks that can win.

Leadership cannot be passive, when people tend to work only to survive from year to year, then there is no success. It is a recipe for collapse from within.
The economy sucks because no one is willing to take risks...the old guys running companies never want to change because they like the way things are and they want things to stay that way until they retire.......well that's not what sports is all about.
And that is also not what brought Terry Pegula success.

Not winning the Stanley Cup is one thing; not making the playoff still another;
Losing games on the road, ok; but not winning at home and not icing a team with grip and grind, or entertainment value, well that is just totally unacceptable.

The team has attracted Passive people and they in turn surrounded themselves with introverted people. Nothing against Reigher's ability or Ruff's coaching style. However, the players like Miller or Pomminville - they would not know how to yell at someone if they had to....their interviews put me to the sleep when I'm running on a treadmill. Ott is a move in the right direction, but not enough.

We need a few players with charisma and drive; and we need a coach like Tortellera or Roy to put some drive in and nails in the rears of a few other players. Maybe even Shoenfield.....to tell the refs to eat some more donuts....that would get the adrenalin going....instead I can fall asleep running on a treadmill watching these guys!

Use the minor team....give some of the no name players a chance...not just the prospects.....find out where your character guys are? be inventive? not Hechtive!

So what if we brought back Hasek and maybe even Satan and we had some controversy in the changeroom, maybe a couple of guys stepping it up, calling each other out and punching each other out. Maybe thats what Connolly and Roy did, but the first sign of extraverted behavior, we had to ship them out. So what if we pulled Connolly off waivers when he goes on re-entry?

Philadelphia thought they had the right idea last year....too much extroverted adrenalin here they said....lets get rid of Richards and Carter.....the introverted LA KINGS got that message and look what happened......I rest my case!

Thanks, tho i don't think it'll be for long.

I hope that Hecht stays in but plays within the role that they signed him to play. 4th line, throw in some PK time. Lindy definitely overused him.

Thanks, tho i don't think it'll be for long.

I think you are using your anti-Garth demonstration to prevent you from racking up the hours on here like the rest of us.

Might have to join you.

we can have heated pissing contests

as long as miller and enroth are not mentioned, all is well

some of these new posters


- homiedclown

To be absolutely fair. I for one dont care but feel it needs to be said.
Dont you think some of these (tagged 'new posters') feel the exact same way going the other way?
I mean the way some of you talk about 'new posters' is nauseating at times.
It's almost like just because you have been here longer, you think your opinion carries more weight which could not be any more laughable. Perhaps it is not intended but I guess all I can say is think before you type.
Thanks I just got tired of seeing this kind of talk here constantly, almost once a blog.

Still here.

don't you sleep ?

I think it's part of the game. New people sign up or read the comments for a while and pick their spot to jump in. They hit the place guns blazing. They say things that sound crazy in an attempt to sound different than everyone else. They take criticism or differences of opinion personally and lash out trying to "win" the argument. Once they've argued with a handful of people, they're labelled a pain in the ass.

The smart people figure out that they are killing the conversation and learn to adapt. The real trolls get banned and create alts and keep spouting their hateful garbage.

I can rattle off plenty of people who were "new" and were total tools until they got the hang of things. The guys who have been around here longer than me might include me in that group, and I probably wouldn't disagree.
